Whether it's short and sweet or a long old slog, the joy of running knows no bounds. Help us celebrate running by showing us the highlight of your run.

Share an image or video that captures this moment – it could be a beautiful view, finally arriving back at your doorstep, an enormous post-run bowl of ice-cream, the finish line of a race, your dog running: anything that captures the best moment for you.

We’ll publish our favourite images and videos on theguardian.com/lifeandstyle and the best one will win a Garmin Forerunner 10 GPS running watch. #Loveyourrun

(Bear in mind that a GPS watch won't be much use if you break your ankle trying to take a photo while running... so take care.) See terms and conditions

Helping John Grundy run through Devon in the 1960 Butlin's John O' Groats to Lands End race (he finished 2nd taking just over 15 days to cover the 874miles) - 53 years on and I still get the same enjoyment from my running

Last summer my friend Nick (pictured) and myself (behind the camera) ran along Hadrian's Wall for charity. This was a steep set of steps around the halfway mark. It was the most picturesque run I've ever done, with spectacular and varied scenery.

Every Sunday morning we go on a slower, but longer and often hilly run. This is taken on the summit of Wimberry Moss (Indian's Head locally), Greenfield, Nr Oldham. What makes it for me is my wife far right... less than a year ago she was 8 stone heavier and never run in her life.

This was my first full Olympic distance triathlon which in the middle of the summer heatwave, and the 10km run was the slowest time I have ever managed for the distance, but having my wife and little girl there to see me finish still made all the exhaustion and effort worth it.

I run at york parkrun almost every weekend but it is extra special when i run at home in oxford with my dad (he took the photo)-here i am at the end deciding to sprint to get a pb yet strangely bending backwards!!!
